Getting started
These basic steps will help you start measuring quickly, and avoid common errors.
1. Preperation

Attach the eyecup to the device.

Hold the device with your palm resting on the side of the handle, ensuring a firm but comfortable grip.
2. Positioning

Position device on eye; use occluder over other eye; instruct patient to keep eye open.

Seat device comfortably on patient’s face. Both contact points should touch face. Eyecup should cover orbit of the eye.

Align line on device side with patient’s lateral canthus (outside corner of the eye).

Steady the device by bridging it to the patient’s face or holding their shoulder with your off hand.

Stand to one side of the patient. Instruct the patient to look at a target 4–6m away. The patient must not look at the red dot in the optical channel.
3. Alignment

Do not tilt, rotate, or turn the device. Slide the device up or down to align.


The red dot should be over the patient’s pupil. The background will turn green when the camera is aligned.
4. Measurement

When the display turns green, the device is ready to measure. Press the start button on the handle.

A dotted line around the pupil camera will indicate measurement progress. Instruct the patient to blink 2-3 times during measurement.
5. Results and new measurement

Autorefraction results displayed on the screen. Keratometry results are available on the QuickSee Free Pro.

Press the plus button to start a new measurement.
